AN innovative training scheme for fledgling engineers has secured Government funding to create an additional 100 places.
The TTE Technical Training Group hopes to fill as many of the places as possible before the Engineering Pathway course begins on September 24.
The Middlesbrough-based training charity already has 164 students signed up for the eight-month programme, which provides an introduction to a range of engineering disciplines.
The additional Government funding has enabled it to create more places to give youngsters across the region a chance to take their first step into engineering.
The programme, which is open to students aged between 16 and 18, offers the chance to gain a level one or two diploma in a selection of trades including engineering, warehousing and building services, and fabrication and welding.
Successfully completing the Pathway will support students' chances of progressing on to an advanced level apprenticeship sponsored by an employer from the oil and gas, chemical process, manufacturing and engineering sectors.
Steve Grant, managing director of TTE, said: "We are delighted to have been able to secure additional funding and create more places for the Engineering Pathway.
"Technical skills and qualifications can open up so many exciting career options and these entry-level programmes offer people the chance to take the first steps on a new career path.
"With the potential to go on to do an advanced level apprenticeship, which is held in high esteem by employers, even those who have not thought about engineering before should consider this option.
"Apprenticeships are becoming an increasinglypopular option for young people who are looking to gain the skills and qualifications that will set them in good stead to enter a career in industry."

text: State of Maine, Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife and Maine State Employees Association, MLRB No. 91-UCA-01 (Sept. 13, 1990), vacating The State of Maine and Maine State Employees Association, MLRB Nos. 83-UC-15 - 83-UC-35 & 83-UC-37 - 83-UC-48, Interim Order (June 12, 1990) STATE OF MAINE MAINE LABOR RELATIONS BOARD Case No. 91-UCA-01 Issued: September 13, 1990 ___________________________________ ) STATE OF MAINE, DEPARTMENT OF ) INLAND FISHERIES AND WILDLIFE, ) ) Petitioner, ) ) APPELLATE REVIEW OF and ) HEARING EXAMINER'S INTERIM ORDER ) MAINE STATE EMPLOYEES ASSOCIATION, ) ) Public Employer. ) ___________________________________) This appeal was commenced on June 26, 1990, pursuant to 26 M.R.S.A. 979-G(2) (1989) when Timothy L. Belcher, an attorney for the Maine State Employees Association (MSEA), filed a Notice of Appeal of a Hearing Examiner's Interim Order issued June 12, 1990. In that Interim Order the Hearing Examiner required the parties to participate in procedures per- taining to supervisory questionnaires concerning the job duties and activi- ties of employees requested by the State to be excluded from the coverage of the State Employees Labor Relations Act. The order requires the parties to develop, within thirty days, separate questionnaires for each class of exclusion proposed and for super- visors of employees requested to be excluded. The order further requires the parties to exchange questionnaires for review and to meet with the hearing examiner to develop a final set of questionnaires. The interim order then requires the State to provide, upon issuance of the final questionnaires, both an updated list of the names, addresses and telephone numbers of employees requested to be excluded and updated documentary evi- dence intended to be used in support of the State's position. The interim order's procedure requires the return of finalized questionnaires by employees within thirty days of their distribution. Twenty days after receipt of completed questionnaires from the Board the State is, under the interim order, to provide a statement of specific -1- grounds for each requested exclusion, in addition to unanticipated addi- tional documentary evidence. Within twenty days thereafter the MSEA is to provide the specific grounds of any opposition to requested exclusions along with additional unanticipated documentary evidence. Ten days later the parties are required to meet with the hearing examiner to resolve docu- mentary issues, to review the parties' legal arguments regarding each posi- tion and to attempt to reach stipulations of fact. The interim order's procedure also anticipates discussion at this meeting respecting the mechanics of further proceedings. The final steps of the elaborate proce- dure anticipate evidentiary hearings commencing within fifteen days and continuing from day to day thereafter until complete, with simultaneous initial and reply briefs tendered within thirty and ten days, respectively. On August 9, 1990, the Maine Labor Relations Board, consisting of Peter T. Dawson, presiding Public Chair, Thacher E. Turner, Employer Representative, and George W. Lambertson, Employee Representative, convened a hearing in this matter at the Board's offices in Augusta, Maine. The MSEA and the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife are represented in this appeal, respectively, by Timothy L. Belcher, Esquire, and Julie M. Armstrong, Esquire. Neither party elicited the testimony of any witness or tendered any other evidence. Both parties presented oral argument and legal memoranda addressing the issues raised by the appeal. The last memorandum was received August 16, 1990. The Board deliberated the issues in the case on Thursday, September 6, 1990. POSITIONS OF THE PARTIES The MSEA contends that the Interim Order "goes far beyond the limited powers conferred on hearing examiners, and on the Board itself, by the relevant statutes or rules." The MSEA also contends that the interim order is unlawful under even the Board's revised rules. The MSEA alleges that it is entitled to present its evidence only after the State's evidence and positions are disclosed and states that an appearance of partiality would be occasioned by the Board's distribution and collection of questionnaires directly to and from employees. Finally, the MSEA argues that the questionnaires improperly deprive it of its right to hearing "by forcing it -2- to disclose the questions it will ask live witnesses." The MSEA concludes on the basis of these contentions that enforcement of the interim order would deny unit members of their due process rights by potentially depriving them of the statutory right to bargain collectively without providing a fair hearing. The State contends that the Rules appropriately applied in review of the hearing examiner's interim order are the rules in effect prior to July 23, 1990. The State further contends that neither the Board rules in effect prior to July 23, 1990, nor the revised rules effective on that date authorize the hearing examiner to require that the "parties . . . develop a questionnaire or . . . participate in the dissemination and collection of such a questionnaire." JURISDICTION The Board possesses jurisdiction to hear and decide this appeal pur- suant to 26 M.R.S.A. 979-G(2) (1988). Neither party has contested the Board's jurisdiction to review the Hearing Examiner's Interim Report. DISCUSSION The basic issue in this appeal is whether the hearing examiner had or has the authority under the old or new rules to issue an order requiring the parties to participate in developing and disseminating employee and supervisory questionnaires aimed at drawing out the material facts con- cerning the job duties and activities of employees requested by the State to be excluded from the coverage of the State Employees Labor Relations Act. The appeal arises out of proceedings conducted in response to a petition for exclusionary designations within the Department of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife, one of thirty-four original petitions filed in November and December of 1982. Only one other of those original petitions has ever gone to hearing. That hearing concerned employees of the Depart- ment of Transportation. A Board hearing examiner convened an evidentiary hearing in that case in March of 1983 and held hearings on over thirty separate days. There are thirty-two still-pending petitions, other than Inland Fish, which request over 600 exclusionary designations. -3- The potential of interminable hearings on the large number of pending exclusionary designations and the need to develop a prototypical method for expeditiously disposing of the requests prompted the hearing examiner to issue an interim order. That order directs the parties to participate in procedures tantamount to fact-finding respecting the job duties of individuals requested to be excluded to the end of revealing facts suf- ficient to enable the parties to more realistically determine which posi- tions proposed for exclusion should actually be the subject of evidentiary hearing. The hearing examiner apparently reasoned that the parties might be able to reach agreement on the appropriateness, or lack thereof, of many of the requested exclusions if they knew the material facts concerning each position. In light of the fact that the total remaining exclusions number over 600, resolution of the requests for exclusion exclusively through evi- dentiary hearing and potential appellate reviews by the Board and the Courts could be excessively costly for the Board and the parties, in both time and money. We think it was entirely reasonable for the hearing examiner to explore every mutually satisfactory method of narrowing the inquiry to those exclusionary designations over which there is credible dispute. However, upon consideration we find no authority in the examiner, under either the present rules or the rules in effect on June 12, 1990, for requiring the parties to participate in the preparation and completion of the objected-to questionnaires. The June 12, 1990, Interim Order must, therefore, be VACATED. The Board's rules and procedures have been comprehensively revised since the issuance of the interim order and have enlarged the procedural latitude of hearing examiners. More specifically, Board Rule 1.16(D) pro- vides that the "hearing and appeal procedures set forth in Rules 1.11 and 1.12 shall apply to hearings conducted in response to petitions for unit clarification." Rule 1.11(D) provides that: [T]he Executive Director or the Director's designee as hearing examiner may require by subpoena the attendance and testimony of witnesses, the production of books, records and other evidence relevant to issues raised by a unit determination petition or responses thereto. The hearing examiner may also require the submission of written statements of fact, position or law prior to hearing. -4- Accordingly, we hereby remand the case to the hearing examiner for further proceedings consistent with this order and the Board's present rules. ORDER On the basis of the foregoing and by virtue of and pursuant to the powers granted to the Maine Labor Relations Board by 26 M.R.S.A. 979-G(2) (1988), it is hereby ordered that the appeal of the Maine State Employees Association be GRANTED. The Interim Report dated June 12, 1990, is hereby VACATED and the case REMANDED to the Hearing Examiner for further pro- ceedings consistent with both the Board's July 23, 1990, rules and the foregoing discussion. Dated at Augusta, Maine, this 13th day of September, 1990. MAINE LABOR RELATIONS BOARD /s/___________________________ Peter T. Dawson Public Chair /s/___________________________ Thacher E. Turner Employero Representative /s/___________________________ Georqe W. Lambertson Employee Representative -5-

2005/7/29, Mark Constable :
You should subscribe to email@example.com and ask the question there.
The short answer is: KDE doesn't need jack or portaudio or alsa. It
needs a soundsystem or even better a sound-api which it can tell "play
me file XYZ", "play video YQ with the sound going through that filter
and with that volume". These are things that basic alsa/jack/portaudio
can't do.
The obvious answer would be xine/mplayer/gstreamer/arts. The
experience with aRts tells use not to focus on one soundsystem and get
lost if that is not maintained anymore. Thats why the
kdemultimedia-devs (Matthias Kretz, Scoot Wheeler and some more)
decided to create a layer between the running soundservers and the
KDE-apps. This has the advantages that the normal KDE-dev doesn't care
about what system is underneath. And that KDE can change the default
soundserver (or even the distributions can change the default).
Gstreamer will probably be the first choice for the default server but
there are also tests with NAS, NMM, xine and some more going on...
Please say good-bye to the thought of jack as the soundserver for
everything. Jack is for professional raw datastreams with very little
latency. For the typical desktop-app/game its irrelevant how much
latency there is (if its not 2 secs) but it wants to play mp3 without
thinking about encoding it...
And yes, I am an official kde-mm-developer, I wrote KRec and do the
translation of the gui and docs into german. And I suffered with aRts
from the devels view...

I have a loooong chain link fence (almost 200 feet) with nothing planted on either side. I really want to plant something that will create privacy and would love it to be tropical.... Thing is, money is a real issue, so it needs to be CHEAP! I found a website where I can get 100 mellow marvel hibiscus plants for $115. I am very intrigued by their photo of a hibiscus hedge and it would be perfect for my budget, but as a newbie gardener, I am wondering if this is really something I'm ready to tackle. Any tips, opinions, pros or cons? How much maintenance can I expect? Will it provide privacy year-round, or will it die back in winter? TIA! |

I am guessing that marvel is a hardy hibiscus (perennial) but this also means it dies down for the winter. Zone eight is very marginal for tropical hibiscus. You might consider doing some in a few groups where winter privacy is not as much an issue but should probably use another evergreen shrub(s) for the majority of this 200 foot area. If budget constaints are the key issue then doing as much of the area as you can afford this year and doing this again next year might be an approach to consider. Very seldom is a great deal a great deal unless you know the plant and grower well enough to know it is a great deal. I hope this help you with your challenge. Good Luck and Happy Growing David |

Thanks! We decided against the hibiscus hedge (but I'm still so intrigued by it!) I did get my first hibiscus plant though and put it on my porch -- I am hooked! |

Next week is the State of the Union address, and I thought I'd offer a little last minute, unsolicited advice to the president and the White House speechwriters. Some may think it presumptuous, but as one of "we, the people," I think it's allowable. It's not like they have to take the advice, after all . . . but it sure would be nice to see and hear something like this.

I planted a 12inch tall banana plant on friday.I dug a large hole and mixed in approx 50% potting compost to 50% steer manure,by saturday afternoon I noticed the very edges of all the leaves are turning black.I suspect I have added too much Steer manure.Should I dig the plant back up and re-plant it in a better mixture.Any advice would be appreciated. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Yes I would replant it!!! I think Steer manure would be way to strong and is burning the leaves. It's best to just use nothing to Fertilize it, until the roots get established. I would wait for about 2 months before you fertilize!!! When it comes time to fertilize it, give it some Fish emusion. I use the organic one. The Banana's love it!!! Dig it us now and wash the corm off with water, before you replant it!!! Diana55 |
Thanks Diana55.I have dug it back up washed the roots and replanted it in a fertilizer free potting compost.I had to use something the place I planted it in was almost pure sand. |
I think you did the best thing, as I think that Steer Manure is way to strong for Banana"s!!!Steer Manure has alot of strong acid in it, and it would burn your plant, and probablly kill it. Fish Fertilizer is really good for Banana's and they will love you for it!!! Use the Organic one. It's called Fish Emulsion,and it really smelly but it has alot of Organic matter in it, and the Banana's grow really fast when I use it. Fertilize it once your Banana's are established. Good Luck and Let me know how they are doing!!! Diana 55 |

NYSE 2014–2016 Holiday Schedule
NYSE Holiday Schedule 2014, 2015 & 2016 | Stock Market Holidays Calendar 2014, 2015 & 2016
Regular hours for the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) are Monday through Friday, 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. EST. However, the stock market observes U.S. holidays, so below you will find the NYSE holidays for 2014 through 2016.
NYSE Holidays | 2014 | 2015 | 2016 |
New Year's Day | January 1 | January 1 | January 1 |
Martin Luther King Jr. Day | January 20 | January 19 | January 18 |
Washington's Birthday | February 17 | February 16 | February 15 |
Good Friday | April 18 | April 3 | March 25 |
Memorial Day | May 26 | May 25 | May 30 |
Independence Day | July 4 | July 3 | July 4 |
Labor Day | September 1 | September 7 | September 5 |
Thanksgiving Day | November 27 | November 26 | November 24 |
Christmas Day | December 25 | December 25 | December 26 |
Each market will close early at 1:00 p.m. EST on the following dates:
NYSE Partial Holidays (1:00 p.m. EST Close) |
2014 | 2015 | 2016 |
Day before Independence Day | July 3 | N/A | July 3 |
Day following Thanksgiving | November 28 | November 27 | November 25 |
Christmas Eve | December 24 | December 24 | N/A |
Crossing Session orders will be accepted beginning at 1:00 p.m. for continuous executions until 1:30 p.m. on these dates.
In Addition…
The exchanges will select a day of mourning (typically the day of the funeral) upon the death of a U.S. President. While not explicitly detailed in the stock market holiday schedule year after year, the exchanges will also observe moments of silence in commemoration of certain historic events (e.g. on September 11, 2006, it observed the five-year anniversary of 9/11 by closing from 9:29 a.m. to 9:30 a.m.). These observances will often not be accompanied by a halt of trading.
Not Quite NYSE Holidays, but…
Certain extraordinary events will cause the markets to close in addition to scheduled NYSE holidays. In the past, the nature of these events has varied from technical/system failures to natural disasters to war, etc.
Extraordinary market volatility has also had its effect on the NYSE schedule. On October 19, 1987, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) dropped 508 points, a 22.6% loss in a single day. Officials invoked the "circuit breaker" rule (Rule 80B) to halt all trading. The decision was highly controversial, and the Rule was later revised with the intention of implementing a pause in trading to give investors time to reassess information and make informed choices during periods of high market volatility.
Under the revised Rule 80B, trigger points were set to signal halts in trading. These triggers were hit only once; this occurred on October 27, 1997, when the DJIA was down 350 points at 2:35 p.m. and 550 points at 3:30 p.m., shutting down the market for the remainder of the day.
Trigger levels are now set at losses of 10%, 20%, and 30%, calculated at the beginning of each calendar quarter, to set off halts for 30 minutes, one hour, two hours, or the rest of the trading day, depending on the level of loss and the time at which these trigger levels are hit in the trading day.
Investor Beware: More Selling Coming to Tech Stocks
If you've been keeping an eye on your screens and portfolio holdings (or if you've just taken a look), you are probably aware of the current selling capitulation towards small-cap stocks and the technology sector. The bloodletting on Wall Street has been unabated and, in my view, it has been overdone. I'm not ready to jump in yet, but I would be on additional weakness in the stock market. In a period of selling capitulation in the stock market, there is minimal regard for the quality of the stock. Sellers rush to the exits and dump everything along the way. I witnessed this on the stock mark ... Read More
Top-Yielding Stocks to Combat Low Interest Rates
Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen has confirmed what most already knew. The recovery in the U.S. jobs market is far from complete. Yellen noted that the unemployment rate has improved since the Federal Reserve initiated its last round of quantitative easing in late 2012, falling from 8.1% to 6.6%. Curiously, in 2013, the U.S. economy grew just two percent. That said, against the backdrop of a so-called improving U.S. economy, the numbers of the long-term unemployed and part-time workers are far too high. In fact, 3.6 million Americans, or 35.8% of the country's unemployed, fall under the "long-term unemployed" umbrella—that is, those who have been out of work for more than 27 w ... Read More
How to Invest in a Stock Market Correction
Has the stock market rebounded? Some seem to think so. After recording the worst month in more than a year and the first monthly loss since August, some analysts think the worst is behind us and February will be a winner. What further evidence do the bulls need than to point to the numbers! After falling more than three percent in January, the S&P 500 is up 0.75%; the NYSE is up a little more than 0.50%; the NASDAQ is up roughly 0.75%; and the Dow Jones Industrial Average is up around 0.50%. Not a spectacular display of strength—but enough to buoy up some investors. But the euphoria may be sho ... Read More
Why January Auto Sales Point to Bleak Future for U.S. Economy
Despite assurances from analysts, economists, and central bankers, the U.S. economy isn't faring so well—and the markets are finally beginning to see what we've been warning about in these pages all last year. For sustainable growth, the U.S. economy needs to be reporting consistently strong fiscals. But it isn't. For starters, the key stock indices, a reflection of the U.S. economy, have extended their sharp January losses. The S&P 500 is down 5.6% year-to-date, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has lost more than seven percent of its value so far this year, the NYSE is down roughly six percent, and the NASDAQ is ...

Three Stocks to Profit While Market Struggles with Positive Return
If January is any indication of the stock market action in 2014, we're in for a long year. After a scorching year, the key stock indices are ending the first month of 2014 in the red. As we say goodbye to January, it's worth noting that the S&P 500, after notching up five-percent in the first month of 2013, gave up three percent of its value during the first month of 2014. The other indices aren't faring any better. The NYSE posted a 3.8% gain in January 2013, but lost 3.2% of its value in January 2014. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained six percent in January 2013, but at the close of January 2 ... Read More

Hi all.
I am a garlic farmer and we are trying to expand into elderberries. We have wild Canadian Elderberries (S. canadensis) here which will very easily root if a cutting is stuck into moist soil. I figured that that technique would work on named cultivars, as well, but so far not much luck. We have a large York elderberry bush, that I took about 150 dormant hardwood cuttings from 6 weeks ago and planted them in the soil, with at least one node below the surface and one node above. They have all leafed out, though all are faring poorly except one. That one, I checked and has roots, however the ones of the others that I checked have no roots. The ground is moist, but not overly so. I did this as well with the best wild selection of S. canadensis, and all are faring nicely except one which hasn't put out any growth but doesn't appear dead yet. What I'm wondering, is if there is a trick to this. People propagated elderberries for thousands of years prior to rooting hormone, though is rooting hormone standard use for elderberries now? If so, what type and strength? I figure that York must be easy to propagate, since it is one of the more common cultivars in the trade, so help would be appreciated. Thanks. |

Use a cutting of firm new growth apply 0.1-0.3% IBA (rooting hormone) stick in well drained soil & mist taking 35-80 days to root |

Winnie-the-Pooh Trail completed
Sunday, December 8, 2013
The Barrington Conservation Commission and Natural Heritage Committee have completed a "Winnie-the-Pooh" Trail in the Goodwill Conservation Area.
The Goodwill Conservation Area is 155 acres that was conserved by the Town of Barrington and a generous donation by previous owner Carolyn Goodwill in 2007. Goodwill also helped to pay for the materials needed for the Pooh Trail. The land is protected via a conservation easement held by the Strafford Rivers Conservancy. It is located on Route 9, about 1 1/2 miles west of Route 125. There is a small parking area just to the right of Richardson Dr. If snow is an issue, you can also park on Richardson Dr. Don't forget to wear bright orange or red during hunting season (rifle season for deer ends on Dec. 9).
Preschool Story Time for 4-6 year-olds includes stories and a related craft. Story Time will be held on Thursdays at 11am. |

I am caught between a rock and a prickly place. Behind me, a steep bank of scree. Ahead, some ferocious-looking gorse. Either side, the sort of gradient that turns a ski run black. What I have done to get here is an object lesson in how not to walk the South West Coast Path (SWCP) national trail. Lured off-piste, lemming-like, by the furthest rocks on the Hurlstone Point promontory, I have run out of path and carried on with the sheep track. Then run out of sheep track. Thwarted, I take comfort in the wonderful views of Somerset's coast, the Bristol Channel and a large portion of south Wales. Then I about-turn and pick my way carefully back to the proper coast path.
I had started my day at Minehead, next to the seafront sculpture of a giant pair of hands holding a map which marks the start of the SWCP. The route-finding pose must be one that's mimicked hundreds of times a day along the path's 630-mile length, all the way down to Land's End and along the south coast to Poole. England's longest national trail is not one that many people tackle in one go (it takes about six weeks) but the beauty of it is that it is broken up into bitesize chunks. Bitesize chunks, what's more, that are easily reached by public transport (a bus connects Minehead to Taunton station), and which come with circular offshoots for added variety. It all conspires to make a couple of days' hiking eminently doable for the casual weekend walker.
As I set off past Minehead's harbour buildings, the sun is going great guns. All good views demand a climb and the path goes straight into a steep zigzag through pine and oak trees made tropical by jade-green ferns and my self-generated humidity. At the top, the reward: a cooling breeze and the sight of a tawny, tweedy landscape rippling above an unruffled sea. And right on cue – now that I am in the national park – some genuine Exmoor ponies.
I don't spot any Dartford warblers – tiny, secretive birds that flit around these parts – but there are plenty of windswept thorny bushes and lots of yellow-flowered gorse as I spring westward on the close-cropped grass. The "C" of SWCP is not taken too literally, and as the "P" curves inland I enjoy views of sheep-peppered hillsides. I have it all to myself: only pawprints, hoofmarks, bike tracks and boot treads in the mud prove I am no pioneer.
About four miles in, I leave the SWCP for a circular route to see Selworthy Beacon. A lookout since the 16th century, this spot is not just a high point in the 308m-above-sea-level sense. I can see Exmoor's wild cliffs, its highest spot, Dunkery Beacon, and the Welsh coastline. It is exhilarating.
From here it is onwards and downwards, through a light-dappled, stream-tinkling, mossy-oaked combe, or valley. I emerge in Selworthy, a National Trust-preserved village of thatched cottages ranged around a pretty green, complete with tearoom – sadly not yet open for the season. Luckily I am still full after the generous breakfast at Spears Cross B&B in Dunster.
I press on into the footpath-crisscrossed woods, where I know there are red deer. I keep thinking I have seen one, only for it to be a fallen branch. At St Agnes Fountain (actually a rather feeble spring), I decide on another detour that will meet the SWCP via the heights of Bossington Hill rather than its foot. This means another steep toil, up Lynch Combe, but a tantalising "viewpoint" symbol on my map draws me on. And boy, is it worth it. Rounding a flank of the hill, I am greeted by simply glorious views: patchwork-green Porlock Vale trimmed with wisps of chimney smoke, the sea crashing on to Bossington beach, and a fine blue sky soaring above the hills opposite.
I can see my route all the way to Porlock Weir – the end of this first section of the SWCP – and after my misguided venture above Hurlstone Point, it is an easy finish to the day's walk. Down I go through Hurlstone Combe, on through trees to the charming, woodsmoke-scented Bossington Village, and over the marshes. It was in 1996 that the 6,000-year-old shingle ridge across Porlock Bay was breached by a stormy sea. Now the fields flood at high tide, farm buildings stand abandoned and crows perch on brine-poisoned branches as farmland becomes saltmarsh.
The final stretch, over the beach to Porlock Weir, is at last truly coastal, even if the rocks underfoot are as wobbly as my legs. As I look back to Bossington Hill, I feel quite chuffed at the distance I have covered – about 14 miles. Time for a welcome pint at the harbourside Ship Inn, and an equally welcome bath at the Yarn Market hotel back in Dunster.
The next morning I hope for an end to the rain as I stroll around Dunster's cobbled streets and medieval buildings. It isn't giving up, though, so I pull on waterproofs and set off for a circular walk west of Porlock Weir.
Another huffing-puffing start, up Worthy Combe, is not easy on the legs. But the view at the top is easy on the eye – Bossington Hill beyond hazy fields, woodlands and coast. Walking between high holly and gorse banks, I catch glimpses of Exmoor horn sheep nibbling the fields while pheasants careen around in the style of Road Runner. I pass Ash Farm, where Samuel Taylor Coleridge wrote his epic poem Kubla Khan, and the pink chimney stacks of Parsonage Farm.
Hitting the SWCP again, I follow it down through catkins and bracken to reach St Beuno's, the tiny 12th-century church secluded in its combe at Culbone. From here it is the SWCP all the way back to Porlock Weir, through woodland sloping steeply down to the sea, little tunnels built by Byron's daughter to hide the tradesmen visiting her mansion, and then the arch of the thatched tollhouse at Worthy. Well into my stride now, I add an extra couple of miles to reach Porlock and the other Ship Inn. Robert Southey, the 19th-century poet laureate, once holed up in this pub, writing: "here by the summer rain confined". I think him a bit weedy for letting the weather defeat him, but drying my muddy boots by the fire with a pint, I have to concede that he chose his shelter well.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Triste!
Facts about Triste
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Tiger Striped
- Age: Senior
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
Triste's Info...
I am already spayed and up to date with shots.
Triste is a 9 year old girl that is very very loving and sweet. She has had a sad life and spent years in pain with an infected uterus. She is now feeling much better that that has been taking care of and wants nothing more than a forever home to spend the rest of her years.
She is often mistaken for a kitten because of her size. She is petite and sweet and would be excellent for a senior home. She is eligible for our senior for senior program where her adoption fee is only $5.00 to anyone over 55 years old.
Other Pets at C.A.R.E. Southcoast
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Triste, a Acushnet Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Acushnet, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Acushnet.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Acushnet already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Acushnet breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Acushnet paves the way for another one to be saved.
